White Rooms in Bruges
The past weekend the charming guesthouse ‘White Rooms in Bruges’ opened its doors.
My friend Natalie Haegeman of Natalie Haegeman Interiors is the lady behind this gorgeous brand new guesthouse in Bruges, the most romantic city of Belgium.
Combining her passion for interior design with her fascination for historic buildings, Natalie restored this typical Bruges house, respecting the original features, and created a uniquely charming environment that she wanted to share with her guests.

Bruges by night
As an interior designer Natalie has decorated the rooms of her guesthouse in the most wonderful way. She made of White Rooms the most cosiest guesthouse of Bruges, decorated in the typical Belgian style.
Let us take a look inside the house.
The living room with an open fire place and original oak floor. As you can see Natalie’s dog Billie definitely feels at home!
Who wouldn’t love to sit here, curled up with a good book, having a glass of wine, after an inspiring walk in the city of Bruges?
The kitchen, with its Belgian limestone floor, is completely decorated in the Belgian style.
Even a small Aga cooker is at your disposal!
Beautiful kitchen table and table lamp.
Natalie is renown for her hand made lampshades. She offers a wide range of hand made lampshades, for sale in her webshop here.
Notice the beautiful pottery and wicker baskets.
I so love this view from the living room towards the kitchen.
The guesthouse has a small terrace that Natalie decorated with garden pots and wooden barrels.
The living room is decorated with antique furniture and objects. Paintings are of the artist Jean-Marc Louis, for sale in Natalie’s webshop here.
Let’s go upstairs to see the bedrooms of the guesthouse.
The house can accomodate 4 people who will be torn between choices of these 2 beautiful decorated bedrooms!
Both rooms are painted white and decorated with accents of celadon.
First bedroom
What a gorgeous idea to hang this group of wicker trays above the bed here!
Second bedroom
All bed linen available at Natalie Haegeman Interiors.
Love this bathroom with the marble topped bath, placed in an alcove.
As no other Natalie knows exactly how to choose the right fabrics for every single room.
A Suzani tablecloth on the table in the dining room.
‘White’ flowers, of course!
Not to forget to mention that a bike is at your disposal.
If you are planning to visit Bruges and if you want to know how it feels to live in a house completely decorated in the Belgian style, then WHITE ROOMS IN BRUGES is your place to be!
Or maybe you might think about surprising friends or family with a weekend stay in Bruges… ? WHITE ROOMS will offer them a memorable stay.

Next to all the historic monuments, gardens and picturesque streets that the medieval city of Bruges has to offer, this guesthouse really is a fine acquisition!

Is white the next big color trend in interior design?
According to the famous interior designer Timothy Corrigan, the color white will be the new color trend in interior design for the next coming months.
Visiting Maison & Objet, the big design trade fair in Paris this month, Timothy spotted new launches and new trends and concluded that the color white was seen at the booths of a lot of the world’s leading furniture and design manufacturers. Timothy tells us that the most significant trend he spotted was the bold move away from multi-colored, almost rainbow splash of the last couple of years to the ubiquitous use of white.
‘White is everywhere!’, he explains. ‘Furniture, accessories, carpets, lighting,….’
‘What’s interesting to note’, says Timothy, ‘is that you can do some pretty outrageous design concepts but they somehow seem more accessible when they are pitched up all in white.’
According to Timothy we can expect to see a lot of white in catalogues and home stores starting this winter and extending into spring.
With permission of Timothy I posted some of the pictures he took at Maison & Objet which all confirm his conclusion that the color white was indeed omnipresent.

I would love to thank Timothy Corrigan for sharing with us his thoughts about new trends he observed at Maison & Objet.
And a huge thank you to Timothy’s assistant Elaine Maltzman, who is always so kind to share with me the latest news about Timothy’s design work, as she did now by sending me usefull pictures and information.
I have always been a huge fan of Timothy’s work and for my readers who are not familiar with his design, please visit Timothy’s website at http://www.timothy-corrigan.com, you will not regret it.
White is color at its most complete and pure, the color of perfection.
White is purity, innocence, wholeness and completion.
White is a color of protection and encouragement, offering a sense of peace and calm.
White is the color of new beginnings, it is the blank canvas waiting to be written upon.
Presumed one of my clients asks me to decorate their home in the new trend using white! What would I suggest?
I was curious about the use of white as new color trend and started browsing the web and tried to search for examples of using white in a future client’s project.
These are examples of how I would love to see bringing in the color white into a home.

In the bathroom I defintely would bring in carrara marble and would love to cover the bathtube with white paneling.

Completely white.
What do you think about this white painted attic room? Ceiling, walls and floor painted in white! Even if you don’t want to follow color trends, this room will always be beautiful. White is a wonderful base.No matter which colors you want to bring in afterwards.
‘This room is as a blank canvas waiting to be written upon.’
Imagine you create this ambiance as Axel Vervoordt did in this white painted attic room!
